An easy walk through the beautiful Alwoodley Park countryside and around the Eccup Reservoir near Bramhope and Leeds. The Route what3words for start point: ///flood.steer.eagles Start / Finish Point: Adel Woods Car Park, off Stairfoot Lane in Alwoodley, LS16 8DR Distance: 6 Miles GPX Route Map walkshirealwoodleyparkandeccupreservoirDownload Walk Description From the car park, cross Stair Foot Lane and take the Public Bridleway directly opposite. Follow the bridleway through the wood, ignoring paths either side until you leave the wood. Then turn right and follow the path along the line of the trees on the edge of Headingley Golf Course to the left. At King Lane, cross over and take the path to the right of the white house. Follow the path along three fields and turn left at a junction of paths. Ignore the path to the right near to the trees, and continue on this path past trees on the right and across a field to Eccup Moor Road. Go over the stile and turn right. Walk along into Eccup, and past the No Through Road sign and through the gates of Bank House Farm, where soon the road becomes a bridleway and a private road. Follow this bridleway all the way along the northside of Eccup Reservoir, to eventually reach a gateway next to the entrance to Owlet Hall Farm, with a public bridleway finger post. Pass through the gateway and continue past the hall to gate onto the road. Walk along the reservoir wall. Turn right through the A frame next to the cottage. Follow this track along the south side of the reservoir until a gate with an A frame. Go through this and turn left down Goodrick Lane. At Alwoodley Lane, cross over and turn right, then left on The Avenue. Follow this road all the way to the junction with King Lane. Cross over the zebra crossing on the left, then turn right on the walkway through the car park, to turn left on Crag Lane. At the car park for the sports club, keep right and walk through the wood, taking the first proper public footpath on the right to return to the car park.
Walk: Meanwood
Take a break in the heart of Leeds with this jaunt through Meanwood Grove between Weetwood and Meanwood. This walk goes along a part of The Dales Way. The Route What3words for Start Point: ///rang.wheels.enhancement Start Point: Bus stops on either Green Road or Green View, Meanwood, Leeds LS6 4JZ Finish Point: Bus stops on either Green Road or Green View, Meanwood, Leeds LS6 4JZ Distance: 4 Miles GPX Route Map walkshiremeanwoodDownload Walk Description From either the bus stop on Green Road or Green View, walk away from the shops and towards Church Lane. Turn left onto Church Lane, then left onto Mill Pond Lane, and immediately right onto Mill Pond Close. When the road ends, carry on walking between the two stone buildings, past the pond on the right and then turn right at the cluster of trees. Follow this straight path along the back of the allotments, and then before the access path reaches the next road, turn right to follow the Meanwood Valley Trail. Cross over Meanwood Beck via the footbridge and carry straight on. At the crossroads of paths, continue straight on, and follow the beck until you meet an access road. Turn left and cross the beck, walking along the very narrow Weetwood Mill Lane. Turn right onto Weetwood Lane and then turn right again into the entrance for The Hollies. Turn left to follow the public footpath along the access road, and continue as it enters the wood. Keep following this main, clear path through the wood, not branching off left or right, but following it as it steadily turns to the left, and eventually you reach A6120 Ring Road Adel. Turn right here, and walk along the side of the Ring Road. Just past a bus stop, turn right down Parkside Road. Continue along Parkside Road, and turn right through the metal stile on the public footpath. Follow the clear path alongside Meanwood Beck and into Meanwood Grove wood, to eventually walk alongside a row of old terrace houses nestled in the wood. Follow the access road down to Green Lane next to the school, and then turn right down to the public footpath as the road turns to the left. Turn right, then left over the bridge and now you retrace your steps back to the bus stops on Green Road / Green View.
Walk: White Rose Way
From Leeds to Scarborough across the Vale of York and the more rugged North York Moors the final 2 miles of the White Rose Way was once voted the world's most romantic walk. The Route what3words for start point: ///poet.tries.jars Start Point: Black Prince Statue in Leeds City Centre Finish Point: South Bay, Scarborough Distance: 104 Miles GPX Route Map whiterosewayDownload Walk Description Take as long or as little as you want (somewhere between 4 and 10 days but 7 would be sensible) as you walk 'Across Yorkshire' from Leeds to Scarborough. The walk was created by local author Paul Brown. Starting in Leeds the route follows many existing sections of long distance footpaths and linking them with lesser known paths. It is a walk where you need to be alert to the map reading challenges of lesser used paths and the exposure of the high moors. However at the end you will have a much greater appreciation of the fine county of Yorkshire. From Leeds the route heads north to Harewood House before following the River Wharfe in to Wetherby. Continue east through attractive villages to the brewery town of Tadcaster and join the Ebor Way towards York. Passing the city to the south the walk turns north to follow the River Derwent past villages and the battleground of Stamford Bridge to the abbey ruins at Kirkham. Eden Camp and the town of Malton are next before arriving in the North York Moors at Thornton-le Dale. From here enter the spectacular Dalby Forest and continue via the pretty Moors valley of Harwood Dale to the coast at Heyburn Wyke. Follow the coast south for the last few miles to Scarborough South Bay and the finish.
